Previously I have eaten Sarawak Laksa at Hai Siang Kopitiam in Bandar Puteri, Puchong and found that the broth has a very strong overpowering herbal taste to it which I thought applies to all Sarawak Laksa but after eating Aunt Christina's Sarawak Laksa, I found that this is not true as the broth this time has only a slight herbal taste. I like both versions so I am going to try more versions of Sarawak Laksa found here and hopefully one day I could taste the real McCoy.

This is Auntie Christina's at Bangsar? I guess that's the real thing - she's from Kuching. Laksa is easy to replicate if you have the right sambal, the best - not all the same, not any one that is available is going to be good. Not cheap there - but you get two huge prawns, worth it!

Here in Sibu too - laksa everywhere, almost in every coffee shop - except for just a few, maybe two or three, the rest I would give my double thumbs down! I guess they would scrimp on the ingredients or use the wrong sambal...or don't really know how to cook. Laksa was never a Sibu thing in the past.

I had Sarawak laksa when I was in Kuching many years ago, and I remember I tried it once or twice in KL at a kopitiam nearby my house..

it's like curry without using coconut milk, or maybe just a bit, to me.. unlike the other type of curry laksa which is rich in coconut milk.. ingredients also a bit different as the Sarawak laksa use shredded chicken and egg, the other type usually gives cockles instead of egg..

I actually prefer the rich coconut milk version, maybe I'm used to having this type since I first ate laksa, haha!!

Sarawak laksa is like curry with a tinge of lime in it... curry flavour and sourish a bit.. Something different and worth trying out... your bowl of noodles with 2 big prawns is definitely worth the price... !

I used to frequent this shop last time when I was working in Bangsar. Basically, every day also go to nearly the same shop but I rarely eat Sarawak Laksa because the portion is rather too small for me and considered expensive. Anyway, I'm glad you like it, though. Hehe!
